China Foundry Connecting the World
As one of
the most influential exhibitions in the global foundry industry, the Metal China, Diecasting China, and Nonferrous China have emerged as premier platform
for global foundry enterprises to engage in showcasing innovative products. These events
have also become the annual gathering of choice for the international foundry
community. Leveraging a robust industrial and supply chain infrastructure,
China's foundry industry is well positioned to deliver competitive,
high-quality products and services that meet diverse global demands.
Emphasizing international collaboration, the exhibitions continue to attract
growing attention from foundry companies and buyers worldwide, fostering
stronger partnerships between Chinese and international enterprises.
In 2026, marking the 40th anniversary of the founding of China Foundry Association, the organizing committee warmly invites leaders, experts, enterprise representatives, and media professionals from over 20 countries, including Russia, Germany, Italy, the United States, France, Spain, Mexico, Turkey, Japan, South Korea, India, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Poland, Belarus, Brazil, and South Africa, to participate in this landmark event.
Together, participants will examine global industry trends, present cutting-edge foundry technologies and products, and discuss the challenges and opportunities arising from the transformation of the global supply chain. Through an international exhibition platform and in-depth technical exchanges, traditional foundry practices will be infused with renewed vitality, strengthening the integration of China’s foundry expertise into the global market and contributing to the sustainable and high-quality development of the global foundry industry.
From May 6 to 9, 2026, join us in Metal China, Diecasting China, Nonferrous China in Shanghai, China, where industry professionals will convene to explore the latest advancements and innovative solutions in metalcasting, engage with transformative technologies, and collaboratively shape the future.
